Wie says it's a hill of a challenge

Michelle Wie said the Women's PGA Championship at Westchester Country Club this week has a special buzz to it and hopes her troublesome hip will not slow her down at the second major of the season.

US Women's Open champion Wie is among 23 major winners in the field for the tournament starting on Thursday, which has been rebranded in a partnership between the LPGA and the PGA of America after 60 years billed as the LPGA Championship.

"It's not a new tournament but definitely has a new vibe to it, so it's a lot of fun," Wie said on Tuesday.
